(Each Skull on Individual Base, Included)

Half-scale, incredibly detailed miniatures created by scanning the individual full-sized (1:1) skulls from our Bone Clones® Comp-120-Set, printing them at half scale, and meticulously prepping them for molding.

These 1:2 scale casts of 6 human skulls allow for the study of characteristics suggestive of geographical ancestry (African, Asian, and European) and sex. This set consists of 3 male and 3 female skulls. Although the concept of ancestry assessment is controversial, certain features of the skull may be of use in differentiating ancestral groups. Some key traits for the analysis of geographical ancestry include eye orbit shape, palate shape, maxillary incisor shape, nasal aperture shape, presence or absence of nasal spine, and shape of nasal sill. Key features for sex assessment include size of mastoid process, robustness of browridge, shape of chin, angle of ramus, and shape and contour of forehead.

Compact and affordable, this scale comparative Ancestry Set is an excellent resource for educators teaching K-12, serving to accurately show facial and cranial differences in individuals of differing sex and ancestry. Individual skulls sold separately (Click Here). This set is perfect for the space and budget-minded, the amateur anatomist or forensic anthropologist, or simply for the enthusiastic collector. A great gift for your favorite educator or for yourself!
